Works Management
The book provides useful information for any organisation with a culturally diverse workforce... But Diversity for Coaching goes beyond the international differences; it also looks at gender and age issues.
Professor David Clutterbuck, Clutterbuck Associates
As coaching becomes increasingly cross-discipline, cross-gender and cross-cultural, coaches need to develop a strong awareness of where and how their own assumptions about clients may affect the quality and outcomes of the coaching relationship. This book provides prespectives from a wide range of cultures and traditions, and in doing so reflects the diversity of coaching itself.
Angela Ryan, Group HR Director Asia Pacifica, GroupM (WPP plc)

they do a sterling job in making coaches culturally and religiously aware when operating in different territories. It's a useful country-by-country guide, and there are differences when it comes to coaching.
